/.  Extract  from  the  Minutes  of  the  Vestry  of  Trinity 
Church,  June  8,  1868. 

"  On  the  recommendation  of  the  Rector,  Resolved,  That 
it  be  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Music  to  consider  the 
expediency  of  preparing  a  Pointed  Psalter,  to  be  set  forth 
for  use  throughout  the  Parish,  with  power  to  appoint  a 
Commission  of  competent  persons  to  prepare  a  draft  of 
such  Psalter." 

II.  Extract  fr 07n  the  Minutes  of  the  Committee  on  Music, 
Sept.  25,  1868. 

"  Resolved,  That  in  the  opinion  of  this  Committee  it  is 
expedient  that  a  Pointed  Psalter  be  prepared,  and  that  the 
Rector,  the  four  Organists  of  the  Parish  (viz.,  Messrs.  Wm. 
H.  Walter,  Mus.  Doc. ;  James  Pech,  Mus.  Doc,  Oxon.  , 
Arthur  H.  Messiter;  and  John  H.  Cornell),  the  Rev.  Wm. 
H.  Cooke,  and  Messrs.  John  J.  Cisco  and  George  T.  Strong, 
be  the  Commission  for  that  purpose." 

TIL  Extract  from  the  Minutes  of  the  Commission,  at  their 
First  Meeting,  Jan .  12,  1869. 

"  The  Rev.  Mr.  Cooke,  Dr.  Walter,  Dr.  Pech,  Mr.  Messi- 
ter, and  Mr.  Cornell,  were  appointed  a  Sub-Committee  to 
prepare  the  MSS.  of  a  Pointed  Psalter  for  publication,  and 
for  use  in  this  Parish,  and  wore  directed  to  report  the 
result  of  their  labors  to  this  Commission." 


IV  OFFICIAL. 

IV.  The  work  of  preparing  the  Psalter  was  done  by  the 

Sub-Commission,  who  held  Meetings  from  January 
1 8,  1869,  until  about  February  1,  1870,  reporting 
from  time  to  time  to  the  Commission. 

V.  Extract  from  the  Minutes  of  the  Commission.  Oct.  29, 

1869. 

"  The  Report  of  the  Sub-Committee  was  read  and  ac- 
cepted, as  follows : 

"  '  The  Committee  appointed  to  prepare  a  Pointed  Psalter 
for  publication  and  for  use  in  Trinity  Parish,  respectfully 
beg  leave  to  report . 

" '  That  from  April  16th  to  this  date  inclusive  they  have 
held  forty-four  (44)  meetings,  and  have  accomplished  the 
pointing  of  the  whole  Psalter,  and  have  entered  upon  the 
work  of  revision,  in  order  to  make  such  further  corrections 
and  alterations  in  the  pointing  as  may  seem  requisite  to 
make  the  pointing  throughout  as  smooth  as  possible,  and 
in  accordance  with  the  principles  which  have  governed 
•  them  in  their  work.  They  hope  soon  to  report  the  entire 
work  ready  for  publication.' 

"  Mr.  Strong  moved  that  it  be  reported  to  the  Vestry 
that  the  work  is  nearly  ready  for  publication,  and  that 
authority  to  print  be  asked,  which  was  assented  to." 

VI.  Extract  from  the  Minutes  of  the  Vestry,  Nov.  8,  1869. 

"Resolved,  That  the  Commission  on  the  Pointed  Psalter 
have  authority  to  stereotype  and  print  the  same  when 
completed,  and  to  make  all  arrangements  necessary  for  its 
publication." 

Attest  : 

MORGAN  DIX,  Rector. 


NOTE 


In  preparing  the  present  Psalter,  the  compilers  have 
adopted  the  following  plan  of  notation,  punctuation,  &c, 
which  has  seemed  to  them  the  best  adapted  for  insuring 
an  intelligent  and  distinct  delivery  of  the  words. 

Marks  of  punctuation,  when  unnecessary  to  the 
sense,  have  been  discarded,  and  the  following  technical 
signs  adopted. 

The  Colon  marks  exclusively  the  central  division  of 
the  Chant. 

The  Comma,  and  occasionally  the  Semi-colon,  indi- 
cates the  place  for  taking  breath. 

The  Perpendicular  Bars  correspond  to  those  in 
the  music  of  the  Chant. 

The  Italicised  words  or  syllables  mark  the  rallying 
points  upon  which  the  voice  should  dwell,  before  pro- 
ceeding to  the  melodic  portion  of  the  Chant ;  and  these, 
with  any  remaining  syllables  or  words  before  the  first 
Bar,  should  occupy  about  the  time  of  one  measure. 

The  final  ed  should  in  all  cases  be  pronounced  as 
a  separate  syllable.

I  said,  I  will  confess  my  sins  un-  |  to  ■  the  |  Lord  : 
and  so  thou  forgaves/  the  |  wicked  -ness  |  of-  my  |  sin. 

For  this  shall  every  one  that  is  godly  make  his 
prayer  unto  thee,  in  a  time  when  thou  |  mayest  •  he  | 
found :  but  in  the  great  water-floods  they  |  shall  *  not  | 
come  •  nigh  |  him. 

Thou  art  a  place  to  hide  me  in ;  thou  shalt 
preserve  |  me  *  from  |  trouble;  thou  shalt  compass 
me  about  with  aottgs  |  of  ■  de-  |  liv  -  er-  |  ance.

Thou  turnest  man  |  to  ■  de-  |  struction  :  again  thou

For  a  thousand  years  in  thy  sight  are  |  but  •  as  | 
yesterday :  seeing  that  is  past  |  as  *  a  |  watch  •  in  the  |

As  soon  as  thou  scatterest  them  they  are  even  \ 
as  •  a  |  sleep :  and  fade  away  \  sudden  -  ly  |  like  ■  the  |

In  the  morning  it  is  green,  and  |  grow  -  eth  |  up :

For  we  consume  away  in  |  thy  •  dis-  |  pleasure  :  and

7  For  they  have  privily  laid  their  net  to  destroy  me

9  And  my  soul  be  joyful  |  in  •  the  |  Lord  :  it  shall

came  together  against  me  unawares,  making  mouths

16  With  the  flatterers  were  |  bu  -  sy  |  mockers  :

3  The  ungodly  are  froward  even  from  their  |  mo  -

5  Which   refuseth   to   hear   the   voice  |   of  *

6  Break  their  teeth  0  God  in  their  mouths ;

fall  away  like  water  that  runneth  apace ;    and

5  He  turned  the  sea  into  |  dry  •  =  |  land  :  so  that 
they  went  through  the  water  on  foot ;  there  did  |  we  ■ 
re-  |  joice  •  there-  |  of. 

6  He  ruleth  with  his  power  for  ever  ;  his  eyes  be-  | 
hold  *  the  |  people  :  and  such  as  will  not  believe  shall 
not  be  able  |  to  •  ex-  |  alt  *  them-  |  selves.

Psalm  lxxv.      Covfitebimur  tibi. 

UNTO  thee  0   God,  do  |  we  ■  give  |  thanks  :   yea, 
unto  |  thee  ■  do  |  we  •  give  |  thanks. 

2  Thy  Name  also  |  is  *  so  j  nigh  :  and  that  do  thy  \ 
won  -  drous  |  works  ■  de-  |  clare. 

3  When  I  receive  the  |  con  -  gre-  j  gation  :   I  shall 
judge  ac-  |  cord  -  ing  |  un  -  to  |  right. 

4  The   earth    is    weak,   and    all    the    inhabiters  | 
there  •  =  j  of :  I  bear  j  up  *  the  j  pil  -  lars  |  of  it. 

5  I  said  unto  the  fools,  Deal  |  not '  so  |  madly  :  and 
to  the  ungodly,  \  Set  •  not  |  up  '  your  |  horn. 

G  Set  not  up  your  |  horn  •  on  |  high  :    and    speak 
not  |  with  •  a  |  stiff  ■  —  |  neck. 

7  For   promotion   cometh   neither   from   the    east, 
nor  |  from  •  the  |  west  :    nor  j  yet  *  =  |  from  ■  the 
south. 

8  And   why?    God  j  is  *  the   j  Judge  :    he  putteth 
down  one,  and  |  set  -  teth  |  up  ■  an-  |  other.

7  Our  fathers  regarded  not  thy  wonders  in  Egypt, 
neither  kept  they  thy  great  goodness  |  in  ■  re-  |  mem-

8  Nevertheless,  he  helped  them  for  |  his  *  Name's  |

9  He  rebuked  the  Red  Sea  also,  and  it  tvas  |  dri  -

through  *  a  |  wild  -  er-  |  ness. 

10  And  he  saved  them  from  the  |  adver  -  sary's  |

20  Thus  they  turned  |  their  •  =  |  glory :  into  the

23  So  he  said  he  would  have  destroyed  them,  had

not  un-  |  to  •  the  |  voice  ■  of  the  |  Lord.

16  For  he  hath  broken  the  |  gates  '  of  |  brass  :  and 
smitten  the  |  bars  *  of  |  iron  *  in  |  sunder. 

17  Foolish  men  are  plagued  for  |  their  ■  of-  |  fence  : 
and  because  |  of  *  their  |  wick  -  ed-  |  ness. 

18  Their  soul  abhorred  all  |  manner  •  of  |  meat :
